I got this for my mother because the old one she had broke and she got upset so, out of rage she tossed it out in the middle of the yard.

that same day i went and picked up this one. It was bigger than her old one. She loves it. as someone who is from Hispanic parents, we eat: carne con papafrijoles: blanco, rojo, negro, chicharo, GARBANZO, all that goos stuff!! HIGHLY RECOMEND

I have had this pressure cooker for about a month. It's great for getting soups and stews cooked in less time than using a crock pot. I love how tender the meat is once it has been cooked. I am a southern lady, and enjoy the comfort of soul food. I recently cooked smoked neckbones and lima beans in the pressure cooker, and it was so delicious. The only downside to this pressure cooker is the noise level while cooking.
